by Kent Sterling That was a hell of a basketball game that the Miami Heat won 103-100 in overtime. The game belonged to the Spurs as they took a 13 point lead in the third. Then it belonged to the Heat as they asserted themselves in the fourth quarter to take a three-point lead with […]
by Kent Sterling There is an arrogance about the Miami Heat that I don’t like. LeBron James carries himself like he has no doubt this series is over, and then he proves that he was right. That I admire. The way the rest of the team syncs with that arrogance, but are mostly incapable to […]
by Kent Sterling The lesson: I’m young enough to continue to challenge my body, but too old to do it without consequence. Just spent four days in Clearwater, Florida with friends and their family. I was hard not to learn on our little trip, which was little because Julie and I realized a long time ago […]
by Kent Sterling Is there anything less attractive than someone who bitches and moans about the rigors and responsibilities of massive success? People who go to Vegas, win big, and complain about the taxes are among the most grotesque scourges on the planet. Lotto winners who long for the days prior to winning should give […]

There are two types of sportstalk stations – those that cater to a sportscentric audience with unique information and perspective from hosts that love the games they cover, and […]
by Kent Sterling Phil Mickelson has everything figured out, but winning a U.S. Open continues to elude him. He has finished second six times since 1999, but those losses won’t define him. Jack Nicklaus holds the record for winning majors with 18, but he was also the runner up in 19 more. Nicklaus is known […]
by Kent Sterling The Indiana vs. Kentucky all star series has become an afterthought on the sports calendar – not because their is a lack of interest from Indiana fans, but because of the quality of play by Kentucky. The sad truth is that basketball in the Bluegrass State is played at such a low […]
by Kent Sterling Everything on a baseball field should be dealt with by ballplayers, managers, and coaches – except for one thing so egregious and dangerous that it should command a deterrent that keeps it from being an option. Throwing at a batter’s head is a pitiful move by a pitcher who should be forced […]
Polka Boy at Cool Creek Festival Tonight – Jeff Russell Video on the Band
by Kent Sterling Some of the best times of my life have been at Polka Boy shows, and one of the most charismatic members of the band is accordionist Jeff Russell. The band will be out in full force tonight playing their unique blend of rock and polka. Jeff Russell joined me at Patrick’s in […]
by Kent Sterling The Miami Heat are like Moby Dick and the rest of the NBA is Ahab. Everytime the league thinks they have Lebron and company on the hook, the Heat remind you they aren’t some ordinary trout. LeBron giveth hope, and LeBron taketh hope away. The 33 points and 11 rebound from James […]
